"Green Up Your Yard with Organic Land and Lawn Care: Save Money and the Environment," an illustrated workshop for homeowners will be offered on Wednesday, September 29th from 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM, at the Woodbridge Library, Woodbridge CT.

The workshop is being offered by the Organic Land Care program, a project of the Northeast Organic Farming Association of Connecticut (CT NOFA). The workshop is co-sponsored by the Conservation Commission of Woodbridge. This FREE 1.5 hour workshop includes a half an hour for questions and answers.

This informative workshop will provide the tools and informational resources needed to practice organic lawn and landscape care, as well as information on the benefits of organic land care. Participants will receive a handout of resources they can use to find more information, and on finding a landscaper who has the knowledge to maintain lawns and landscapes organically.

CT NOFA promotes methods of farming, gardening, and land care that respect biodiversity, soil, water, air and the needs of future generations through education, support, and advocacy.
